This fantastic Lemania powered 1960s Tissot Seastar chronograph is a gem. This dual-register chronograph features a deep black dial with warm patina tritium lume on the hour markers and hour and minute hands (the tritium lume is no longer functional as expected). The minute subdial with its touch of blue color at the 5 minute mark, combined with the red center second hand really makes this watch stand out. The speedmaster-style original tachymetre bezel has light patina with all numerals and markings still being legible and useable. The original restored Tissot bracelet with integrated endlinks is a rare find and really makes this piece unique. The watch is in beautiful restored condition as per our extensive restoration and authentication process. The watch features a new acrylic dive crystal, a carefully cleaned dial and hands, and a case and an original bracelet that has been restored to OEM finishing, and a Tissot Lemania 1277 manual wind cam-driven lateral-clutch chronograph movement that has been fully overhauled and restored to OEM specs.

This watch runs at 18,000 vph and tracks seconds and minutes up to 30.

The watch is 37mm in diameter but does wear slightly larger due to the case design and bracelet. The bracelet is 19mm. The dial, movement, case, crown, bracelet are all signed Tissot. The caseback and crown have new gaskets and combined with the new dive crystal, this watch features high-range water resistance (warranty does not cover swimming).

As with all of the restored pieces we sell, this Lemania powered Tissot Seastar comes with our zero-headache warranty.
